    La Volta

    Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in La Volta

    Thanks Gary. It’s good of you to try this dance, and to let me know what you thought.

    La Volta Is it wrong to say that I crave you, your body pinned to mine in pleasure, each giving and receiving in equal measure taking of one another’s treasure moving in ecstatic harmony? I want you; my need drives me crazy, but they say desire often does that to a man who gets drunk on it regularly; and you are the perfect narcotic, filling my emptiness with hard joy. Remember

    I am partial to poetry written to the moon; this is especially welcome. Thank you for illuminating us.

    CDMX • XVIII

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in CDMX • XVIII

    It was fun to see the arrival and interplay with Ritch from CJ and Ozzie’s perspective. You handled the intersection of your two stories remarkably well. It’s good CJ was able to get away from Stephen, but it wouldn’t surprise me to learn Northman has laid a trap for CJ in his absence.

    What indeed is to be done as time makes a mockery of so much we have held dear to ourselves and our identities? You make this question so clear, so compelling, that I fear the answer.

    Choices

    Parker Owens commented on northie's story chapter in Choices

    I particularly enjoyed this chapter. Imagining Eric in smart clothes that fit changes my entire interior vision of him.

    Thank you for reading! I hope that’s a good “wow.”
  8. Parker Owens
    I could not help warming to your analogy. I hope each of these was like a concentrated cup of espresso. You’re most welcome, and I’m most grateful for your response.
  9. Parker Owens
    I enjoyed this story very much. It is not an easy subject to tackle. Thanks for sharing it with us.
  10. Parker Owens
    I’m very happy you read and liked them.

    Thanks so much for reading these. Some took a lot of reworking; their scratch outs and scribbles are barely legible in my notebook. Yes, they’re very personal, yet if they speak to someone else’s desire or experience, perhaps another poet will be born. Thanks again.

    The world needs poets; people who can reconnect us to feelings and senses and experiences. If these poems move you to write and share, then I am more than happy. Thanks so very much for reading and responding to this set.
  13. Parker Owens
    Thank you for taking time to read these. I’m glad you thought them delightful. They give voice to desires and memories which must wait forever the day we can all unmask.
  14. Parker Owens
    Thank you very much.
  15. Parker Owens
    I like your thought that our bodies speak with their own language; one that needs little translation between those who are well matched. Thanks for your response to this first set of dances.
  16. Parker Owens
    I’m so very happy you thought this was a good surprise. This form is addictive to write in. Thank you very much for reading!
  17. Parker Owens
    I’ll hope what follows meets with your approval. Altogether, there are six dances; perhaps when the last one posts, it may be possible to fold the masks and put them away. Thanks again so much for this form, which allows room for arc and freedom within its structure.

    Bouree I want him moving deep inside me; matching his pleasure to our heartbeats, whispering his desire, his lust, his urgent need; his lips and teeth claim me, skin and soul, while I await the joy of release. Spagnoletta I don’t know how to ask politely for what I want from another man, what etiquette dictates in such circumstances: do I dress
  19. Parker Owens
    This is a series of once and future dances, echoes and dreams from the long, discontented solitude enforced by the pandemic. I dedicate it to a man whose friendship and fire have burned constant through this everlasting night.

    Chapter 9 - Animal

    Parker Owens commented on JACC's story chapter in Chapter 9 - Animal

    This is a marvelous poem. It makes me feel as if I’m not alone.
  21. Parker Owens
    The title of this chapter No Going Back has me thinking about both Jake and Nic. It first seemed that the chapter name might be about Jake. After this experience, how could he go back to pretending with Meg or anyone else? His eye and mind and body have been increasingly captivated. And yet I wonder if this isn’t also about Nic - his current existence provides little comfort, and he must hide so much; with Jake, he commands, not because he’s masterful, but because deeper issues threaten to crack and break him in pieces. For Nic, there appears to be no retreat to a place in which he might allow Jake to know him and truly touch him.

    The story

    Parker Owens commented on northie's story chapter in The story

    I wonder if there are spud-smugglers from other countries; illicit spud cargoes intercepted on the high seas… this world could be very exciting as well as profitable.

    Friday

    Parker Owens commented on northie's story chapter in Friday

    She left the bastard. Now if only the bastard will leave town. Or the country. Perhaps a little sojourn in St. Helena? Not that they want him there, either.

    CDMX • XVII

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in CDMX • XVII

    A beautiful and tense evening! I’m not sure about mission accomplished until Yevgeny goes home. The Russian was obviously overconfident and had not done deep enough work on CJ and Owen. Yet, it makes me wonder if Domogarov was just a ploy, a cover for something even deeper. Moreover, I wonder if CJ is really willing to make good on his promise to the Russian. Great chapter!

    I agree it’s understated, but it’s also clear, transparent almost. Tonight, I find that appealing.
